It could be very nice to have an M7 with cardioid and omni (U47) and a K47 with cardioid and figure 8 (U48) in one mic. Why, what a unique and novel idea! Why didn't I think of that? LOL

Just wanted to bump this and the Upton thread to say I’m totally blown away by these two mics. Actually, it’s kind of a bummer because I don’t really have mic lust anymore. So, I’ve picked up a meth habit.

Worked just like I was hoping the other day - The Upton was too sibilant on a female I was recording and the H47 absolutely did the trick.

Mine just showed up unannounced. Not sure what happened, but the shipping notice a week ago was cancelled, but a box showed up today. Today I am packing up for a remote of a men's choir concert tonight, and tomorrow attending a relative's 70th Wedding Anniversary celebration. Maybe can dig into it on Sunday or Monday. Hope to do a shootout eventually with my original Telefunken U-47.

I put the Heiserman Tube U-47 into service today. It comes in a heavy duty Pelican case and includes the mic, an historically accurate shock mount, a high quality 7 conductor cable, an IEC power cable, and a spare elastic band for the shock mount. The mic is substantial, so you'll want to use a heavy duty boom stand. It boasts a wonderful fit and finish rare in the "boutique" microphone market. It is very authentic in appearance to the original Telefunken (Neumann) U-47. The suspension mount uses the double rings with spring clasps exactly as the original. The attention to detail is first class all the way. They decided to go with a smooth glossy blue finish for the power supply instead of the standard battleship gray on the original, but it is very attractive and adds a special touch to their creation. So how does it sound? This mic sounds huge! Many years ago I had a rap artist in using my original Telefunken U-47. Everytime I played a take back, the rapper kept bragging how good he sounded. The producer finally stopped him and said "No, that MIC sounds good". I had to chuckle today when on this mic's maiden voyage the artist, also a rapper, constantly commented on how good he sounded on playback. No, I didn't repeat what the producer had said many years ago, but the parallel gave me a good laugh. Amazing work Heiserman! This Heiserman H47 Tube mic will certainly be one of my go to mics. The only thing I don't like about this mic is not having two of them.
